I don’t believe in the slightest he though he created a novel approach to psychology.

He has other books he’s written where, plain as day, he points out the absurdity of religion and people following it. He put out a sci-fi book as a self help book because he thought it was funny and would make more money. He then made it a religion because he knew people were easily manipulated.

I am basing this on other things i’ve read from him, such as the Mission Earth series. I don’t believe in the slightest that he believed in any of it, from the junk science on up.

Its pretty easy and straightforward. You can connect to your gog account from inside lutris, browse your games, download and install.

Which then sit cleanly next to other games you may have, roms, etc.

I haven’t had any issues with gig + lutris, quite a smooth experience actually.

Though most of the games in my library are older tbf.

Was that the file transfer allowed for remote code execution one? That’d be the one that sticks out to me. 3 or 4 years ago iirc?

Edit: CVE-2021-27649 is the one that came to mind, not sure if that’s the one you’re referring to.

Exif-eraser, open source and available on F-Droid, Google Play, etc.

I’m in hard agreement with you, EuroTrip Yoda (had to).

My in-laws definitely voted Harris, my dad passed 4 years ago (Vietnam vet - not a trump fan), and my mom went down an idiotic rabbit hole. I haven’t talked to my mom in weeks, and I’m sure she knows why.

She also doesn’t know that we are planning to leave the country. I can’t stay in a place that will reduce my daughter to a second class citizen without bodily autonomy. Yet that’s what the nitwit I called “Mom” voted for.

Exif data can contain everything from the make/model of device used to take a picture, to a gps location of where the picture was taken.

Removing that information depends on what you’re using to do it, but can be done with an exif editing tool in pretty much any OS I’m aware of.

Edit: Autocorrect is a pita.

Yup!

The town has 375 people.

That’s not a suburb…

You keep pointing out the design flaw, but I think we are aware that its a flawed design.

So a shit design, yeah, that’s what we’re talking about.

And garbage science has been used in court for a long time.

I think you’re confused.

There are reasons to defederate. Malicious instances are one example.

There are many reasons not to deferederate, like users on a particular instance being assholes to a specific user or group of users.

A user cannot, today, block users from an instance. They can block individual users, they can block communities, but individual blocks can be easily worked around.

A better option is for that user to have the option to block an instance (and its users) that others are fine with interacting with.

You are trying to rework that into something its not.

Edit: Ahh, the no reply just downvote. Says everything. Goodbye.

And in no way does adding user options to block all users from an instance change that.

Why are you arguing against users having additional controls?

Malicious instances could still be defederated though.

The problem is that users also need the option at user level.

That’s my hope for my kids right now.

Still working out where to go, and of course the (lengthy) process of getting there, as well as an obvious step further than simply sending my kids off to college elsewhere…

But “Not the US” is the answer to far too many questions right now.

I had no idea that was built into piefed, that’s great!

App-based is… Not great IMO, it needs to be part of the base or its just not viable.

Honestly I think this speaks to the value of having user-level blocking of instances rather than defederation. Maybe one day that will be incorporated into Lemmy (or similar).

American here! Its because this is all rhetoric for the idiots that follow him. He doesn’t care if Europeans see him as an idiot, he cares that the idiots here see him as big brained. And the rubes eat up anything that has “free speech” in it because they generally interpret that as “its OK to be racist and misogynistic, its my right because freedoms!”

Hope this helped explain.

And probably also explains why I want to leave.

that will hurt poor people the most.

As is tradition.
